Jump To Comment: 1African people get 4€ in aid from the €U.
A european cow gets 946€ more that an African person, because
*We have no migration problems with cows.
*Cows have good governance.
*Cows spend the money well on economic reform.
*Cows suffer little or no corruption.
*Cows work with us to achieve prosperity.
A european cow gets 950€ in subsidies because its life is short and miserable and they don't go to heaven.
An African person gets 4€ in aid, because when an african dies he or she goes to heaven.
= it all works out in the end.
